tomorrow here in madrid, at least 150,000 people are expected for a huge antiwar protest. In the last parliament the GOP was left alone against ALL the opposition in the war debate. Polls say 75% of the population are against a war. sooo... dont sign in spain to the countries that want a war... the only one that wants it is our idiot of a president.

Actually, that is the case all over Europe... I don't think there's a single country in Europe where a majority of the people actually supports a war. A recent poll in our country actually pointed out that "the" Dutch people think that the US is a bigger danger to world peace than Iraq and North-Korea, in fact. Even though those aren't official statistics from referendi of course (it will also depend on the way the questions in those polls are formulated, I assume), it's safe to say that the US has a bit of a reputation problem over here in Europe at the moment.
